Sheffield Utd FC have signed Reda Khadra from Brighton & Hove Albion on a loan deal. The club announced: The Blades have further strengthened the squad. Ahead of the forthcoming campaign, again utilising the market wisely. To add another Premier League player to the ranks. Brighton & Hove Albion’s Reda Khadra arrives at Bramall Lane on loan.
Speaking upon securing the signature of the coveted attacking player, Sheffield Utd FC boss Paul Heckingbottom remarked: “This is a deal that has taken a while, there has been lots of ups and downs. But we’ve managed to get him in on loan which is great for us and Reda is just as excited as we are.
“We spoke with Brighton about Reda a long time ago and that pleased him, when he spoke to us he knew he wanted to come here and it has been a case of remaining patient whilst a deal was agreed between the clubs. He is different to a lot of players we’ve got, he’s naturally very direct. And has explosive pace which Blades fans will have noted. From playing against us last season.”
He added: “I’m really happy to be here now and I just can’t wait to get started and playing in front of the fans. In the Championship last season and I’m excited by this opportunity.
“I sensed the fans were right behind the team. And obviously I scored on my first start for Blackburn Rovers. Against the Blades at Ewood Park. I’m already looking forward to Monday’s game at Watford.”
